Congrats on the bronze. What a skate for Mai, and all that under the pressure of having to pull up from 8th. Am totally enamored of how she gets power into her jumps and yet lands as light as a feather on those soft knees. The audience was already dying to stand when the program still had a minute remaining. Well-deserved standing ovation. Can't wait to watch the program again when I have time and can appreciate it even more.

You're right, this is probably what I like the most about beauty Mai, her power/softness combination. They just melds the two together perfectly, I can never get enough! :luv17:
Aside: I'm really glad to hear that about the audience, and I could kind of tell from the video that she was received well, but I thought the audience in general was very lukewarm on most skaters not in the last group/from US? (hope I'm wrong).
